Celestial Navigation System (CNS) has characteristics of accurate orientation and strong autonomy and has been widely used inHypersonic Vehicle. Since the CNS location and orientation mainly depend upon the inertial reference that contains errors causedby gyro drifts and other error factors, traditional Strap-down Inertial Navigation System (SINS)/CNS positioning algorithm settingthe position error between SINS and CNS as measurement is not effective. The model of altitude azimuth, platform error angles,and horizontal position is designed, and the SINS/CNS tightly integrated algorithm is designed, in which CNS altitude azimuth isset as measurement information. GPF (Gaussian particle filter) is introduced to solve the problem of nonlinear filtering.The resultsof simulation show that the precision of SINS/CNS algorithm which reaches 130m using three stars is improved effectively.
1. Introduction
Hypersonic Vehicle (HV) which refers to a vehicle flyingat Mach 5 or above has already been the research focusin aeronautic and aerospace fields with its great strategicmilitary application values [1, 2].
Although Hypersonic Vehicle has many advantages, suchas large flight envelope, high maneuverability, and well pen-etrability, the dynamic model of an HV is fast time varyingand highly nonlinear because of itsMach numbers [3]. Large-scale variations of altitude and velocity lead to uncertaintiesin the aerodynamic parameters [4, 5]. As a result, HV isa highly nonlinear and uncertain system. Consequently, itis difficult to measure or estimate the dynamic state andcharacteristics of the vehicle [6]. Autonomous navigationsystem with high accuracy and reliability has been a majorconstraint on the improvement in performance of HV.
In recent years, owing to the development of microelec-tronics and computer technology, as well as the accuracyimprovement of Charge Coupled Device (CCD), ChargeInject Device (CID) star trackers, and inertial components,the Strap-down Inertial Navigation System (SINS) and Celes-tial Navigation System (CNS) are widely used in in aircrafts[7].
The celestial navigation method is a kind of autonomousnavigation technology which can determine the vehicle’sposition and attitude [8]. Since Celestial Navigation System(CNS) has characteristics of accurate orientation and strongautonomy, it has become an important component of inte-grated navigation system of HV [9].
The conventional celestial navigation utilizes the iner-tial navigation platform technology to realize the verticalvector and compute the vehicle’s navigation information bymeasuring the relative position changes between the verticalvector and the celestial vector.The navigation accuracy of thismethod depends largely on the accuracy of horizontal refer-ence and celestial sensormeasurements [10]. CNSusually getsthe inertial horizon reference by inertial navigation platform.Considering that the strap-down type replacing the platformtype has been the development trend of INS, it has becomeextremely difficult to improve the accuracy of the inertialhorizon references due to the impact of INS core instruments(gyros and accelerometers) error [11].
In traditional SINS/CNS integrated mode, CNS utilizesthe position and attitude information of INS to calculatecelestial positions and heading attitude and then realizeperiodic correction of the INS drifts. This mode can damp

the divergence of INS position errors; however, since the CNSlocation and orientation mainly depend upon the inertialreference that contains errors caused by gyro drifts and othererror factors, this postcorrection method is not effective.
A number of classical approaches, the Kalman filter(KF), extended Kalman filter (EKF), unscented Kalmanfilter (UKF), particle filtering (PF), and so forth, have beenproposed to the information fusion. Kalman filtering iscommonly used algorithms for information integration. Aprerequisite for using Kalman filter is that the system dynam-ics and noise statistics are known [12]. But considering theHV is a highly nonlinear system, the dynamic characteristicsof the HV and external environment make these premiseconditions often not met.
PF can effectively solve the problem of nonlinear filtering[13, 14]. However, its limitation is obvious.
(1) PF occasionally has the particle impoverishment (PI)problem that results from resampling process [15].
(2) The number of particles will increase at a rapid ratealong with the increase of the system dimensions.
The Gaussian PF avoids the PI problem that is thedisadvantageous feature of PF in the estimation of a staticparameter. Furthermore, resampling process is not requiredin the GPF algorithm. Therefore, its computational com-plexity (CC) is significantly reduced compared to particlefiltering.
This paper will carry out the research on the SINS/CNSintegrated navigation algorithm for the HV. In order toimprove the accuracy and reliability of SINS/CNS integrated

3. SINS/CNS Gaussian Particle FilterAlgorithm
The GPF approximates the filtering and predictive densitiesby Gaussian distributions in a PF framework.TheGPF recur-sively updates only the posterior mean and the covariance ofthe parameter of interest. The basic idea of PF is to representa density by generated samples and their associated weights.The following shows the approximation of a filtering densityby particles and their weights.
The equations of nonlinear system model are defined asfollows:
x𝑘= 𝑓 (x
𝑘−1,𝜔𝑘−1
) ,
z𝑘= ℎ (x
𝑘, v𝑘) .
(27)
GPF can be described as the following two steps.
Measurement Update. Generate the sample particles follow-ing
x𝑖𝑘∼ 𝑞 (x𝑖
𝑘| z0:𝑘) , (28)
where 𝑞(⋅) is the importance sampling function, 𝑖 = 1 : 𝑀,and𝑀 is the particle number.
And the weights can be approximated by the following:
𝜔𝑖
𝑘∝
𝑝(z𝑘| x𝑖𝑘)𝑁 (x𝑖
𝑘; 𝜇𝑘; Σ𝑘)
𝑞 (x𝑖𝑘| z0:𝑘)
, (29)
where 𝑝(⋅) is the filtering density, and 𝜇𝑘, Σ𝑘are obtained by
sample mean and covariance of the particles generated in theprevious time update step.
Then compute the 𝜇𝑘, Σ𝑘following

(32)
According to (26), the state equation is nonlinear and themeasurement equation is linear; the measurement update ofGPF can be estimated by Kalman filter. Thus, (29) and (30)can be simplified as follows:
K𝑘= Σ𝑘H𝑇𝑘[H𝑘Σ𝑘H𝑇𝑘+ R𝑘]−1
,
𝜇𝑘= 𝜇𝑘+ K𝑘[z𝑘−H𝑘𝜇𝑘] ,
Σ𝑘= [I − K

4. Simulation and Analysis
Theproposed algorithm is testified by the designed track.Thedrift of equivalent gyros in inertial navigation system is setto 0.1∘/h, the drift of equivalent accelerometer is 10−4 g, andthe period of SINS algorithm is 5ms.The navigation stars areAlioth, Arcturus, and Dubhe. The error of star sensor is 10arc-second, and the period of CNS is 1.0 s; the period of theGPF is 1.0 s.
The track is set as showed in Figure 1. The longitude is setas showed in Figure 2.
The errors of longitude and latitude are given as in Figures3 and 4.
In Figures 3 and 4, “A” represents the results of onenavigation star and “B” and “C” represent two and threenavigation stars.
In Figures 3 and 4, when there are more navigation stars,the position error is smaller. The mean square error averageis shown in Table 1.
Test results indicate that the precision of position is about1100m with one star. The precision of position using threestars can reach 130m, which indicate that the method inthe paper can improve the precision of navigation systemeffectively.
The comparison of GPF and KF using three stars is givenin Figures 5 and 6.
Through Figures 5 and 6, both KF and GPF can conver-gence fast, but the accuracy of GPF is higher, and the steadyaccuracy is less influenced by the carrier mobility.
5. Conclusion
The SINS/CNS navigation system is an importantautonomous navigation technology of HV for its accurate
orientation and strong autonomy. Traditional SINS/CNSintegrated mode, which uses celestial positions correctingthe SINS drifts, is not effective because the CNS locationmainly depends upon the inertial reference that containserrors caused by gyro drifts. In this paper, the theory ofSINS/CNS integrated navigation system based on celestialangle observation information has been proposed forHV. The model with altitude angle, platform error angles,and horizontal position is deduced; the SINS/CNS tightlyintegrated localization algorithm using GPF is presented.TheSINS/CNS algorithm is of important value in engineeringapplication.
